Everytime on MSM when they talk about the rebate checks they show the printing machines printing the money!! What the fu*k!!! They never say where the money is coming from but they show that shit. All the sheep think yayyy this is great!! rebate checks!! While they are watching the problem right in front of them. Stuuuupiiddddd.

It is damn frustrating to watch the media hype up these rebate checks as if millions of Americans were just handed $600 scratch off ticket winners.

Perhaps Im confused ( I dont file taxes so I won't get a check) Is the rebate check not the money people paid through their taxes? So technically its not being printed, its just getting back what people already paid. Please correct me if Im wrong.

However as far as people being sheep. It's so easy to be lulled into what they think is "acceptable". People get comfortable living like sheep and frankly most are apprehensive about change.

Read that the checks are coming out of peoples tax refunds. They wont be getting the money later but earlier. Also if someone owes taxes instead of getting a refund they will have to pay it back later to the IRS. Nice of the gubermint to take from us and give it back to us fooling many in thinking that it was never our own money.

Are not the rebates just a return of the people's money back to themselves? I won't be getting one.
